About Autism
Autism is a lifelong neurological disorder requiring continuous care and support. Currently there is no known cause or cure for autism.
It is the fastest growing, most commonly diagnosed neurological disorder in Canada marked by:
Impairment in communication
Impairment in reciprocal social interaction
Presence of repetitive and unusual patterns of behaviours, interests and activities
1 in 59 children are now diagnosed as having the autism spectrum disorder with diagnoses increasing 100% over the past 10 years. Autism is 5 x more likely in boys than girls.
33% of individuals with autism are non-verbal.
Autism is called a spectrum disorder (ASD) because severity of impairment presents differently in every individual.
ABA (Applied Behavioural Analysis) is the science that studies how environmental changes affect behaviour. Research shows ABA is an effective intervention for individuals with autism.
